ABSTRACT The invention is concerned with a method and an apparatus for the manipulation of starting chain segments for continuous strand casting whereby the segments are coupled to and decoupled from a remainder of a starting chain. According to the invention, the chain remainder is displaced into a first arcuate upright guide and is retained at rest therein. A chain segment is disposed into a second arcuate upright guide having the lower end thereof aligned with the lower end of the first guide, and is coupled to the chain remainder between the lower ends of the guides. Where it is desired to decouple a segment from the chain remainder, such segment is disposed into the second guide and is de- coupled from the chain remainder between the lower ends of the guides; the chain segment is thereafter retracted from the second guide. The invention permits the rapid insertion and removal of starting chain segments during a change in the format or cross-section of a continuously cast strand in a continuous casting installation utilizing such starting chains.
